Select the equation of the line that passes through the point (−2, 3) and is perpendicular to the line on the graph.
y = 0
y = −2
y = 3
y = 3x

with a line going through points four comma 0 and four comma 2.

Respuesta :

Step 1

Let

[tex]A(4,0)\ B(4,2)[/tex]

the equation of the line AB is

[tex]x=4[/tex]

we know that

the line AB is parallel to the y-axis

therefore

the line perpendicular to the line AB will be parallel to the x-axis and the equation of the line will be equal to the y-coordinate of the point [tex](-2,3)[/tex]

The y-coordinate of the point is [tex]3[/tex]

the equation of the line is

[tex]y=3[/tex]

the answer is the option

[tex]y=3[/tex]
